Hello Bob,

Test on its own is very simple to do indeed...

Ofcourse when there's a leak in the watch the story begins.

Prior to testing it with the Greiner WPL-610 which involves water...I test the watch "dry", testing the watch in vacuum (0,7BAR) and afterwards under pressure (1, 3, 5 or 10 BAR), measuring the deformation in the case. Here's another link to a Monaco I tested:
